Until the 1st trimester
Although the Philadelphia 76ers entered the competition as an underdog, they are well on their way to stealing the victory from the Golden State Warriors.

The former has eight points with a block, while the latter has ten points.
Philadelphia and the Dubs have both rounded out the winning column in their previous outings. We’ll see if Philadelphia can maintain their lead to secure another victory and quash the positive energy from Golden State.

The Golden State Warriors are 9-3 against the Philadelphia 76ers since January 2016, and they will have a chance to extend that success Wednesday.

Golden State had enough points to win, then against the Toronto Raptors on Sunday, winning their clash 119-104. Golden State can attribute much of his success to little forward Andrew Wiggins, who shot 6 for 8 from downtown and finished with 32 points and six boards, and shooter Jordan Poole, who shot 8 for 11 at- beyond the arc and finished with 33 points.
As for Philadelphia, they can’t say they have nothing to thank for this Thanksgiving week. They won their game against the Sacramento Kings on Monday 102-94. Philadelphia’s top scorer was point guard Tyrese Maxey (24 points).
The Dubs are the favorites in this one, with an expected margin of victory of 9.5 points. They might be worth trying their hand at ATS as they are currently on a four-game winning streak against ATS.
The wins took the Dubs to 15-2 and the Sixers to 10-8. A pair of stats to keep in mind as you watch: The Dubs enter the contest with an average of 9.82 steals per game, good for second-best in the league. But the 76ers are third in the league in steals per game, averaging just 6.7. Ball control could end up being a major factor in this one.
